Why she might not marry
While noting that people should not be surprised if she gets married in future, the lady maintained that marriage does not benefit women.
She said it is only the man who enjoys marriage and based her opinion on things she picked out from married folks she had been around. She frowned at how cheating is fast being normalised in marriages, claiming some men prefer women who condone their cheating. In her words:
“I don’t think I want to get married. I said what I said…I don’t think women really benefit from marriage nowadays. I don’t know o, next year, you people might see wedding invitation that one man has come to carry me.
“But as somebody that has been around a lot of marriages, all the marriages that I have basically come around, you know, they have their…I know marriages have ups and downs, which is totally fine…
“All the marriages I have been around, it is just somehow… They just make me know that this is not what I want for myself…
“To me marriage is like, the man is just enjoying. The way people have now normalised cheating, like, it is a normal thing…Some men, peaceful women are those women that don’t disturb them when they catch them cheating. Those are their kind of women.”
She marvelled at the thought of sleeping on the same bed every day and remaining with one man for life. The lady said she might consider co-parenting.
